It's snowing

Joyce just told me the snow flakes in New York are beautiful. You'll have to imagine them. I'm in South Carolina, where it's almost 70 degrees. This is where Christians in Theatre Arts ( http://CITA.org) is headquartered, and Dale Savidge, the executive director, said one day he got a call from a me...

The MasterWorks Theatre Program

Many have pointed out that the quality of our performances is getting better each year, so I realized that it was time to invite a casting director from New York or Hollywood. John Kirby (more on John in a moment) said that he had worked with Beverly Holloway and thought she'd be ideal, and now she'...

East Liddell Road

I just went for a run on East Liddell Road. No, I'm not back in Scotland, I'm just north of Atlanta, GA, here to perform Beyond the Chariots about Eric Liddell. No idea of whether or not the road is named after him, but I'm grateful for the nearby inspiration, as well as the pickup...

Kerry Butler believes

Every Wednesday that I'm in town the songs of Xanadu keep my afternoon lively as the matinée of the Broadway hit reverberates through the Helen Hayes Theatre where I keep my office.

The movie Xanadu is considered to have put to death the movie musical, but this stage musical has fixed a number of ...

The view that launched this farmboy

I've posted shots of Chicago at night in the past. Here's another view of the city that inspired me to travel as a third-grader on the first of eight road trips from coast to coast.

MWF planning

I just left snowy Winona Lake, where we just held our MasterWorks ( http://MasterWorksFestival.org) department head planning session. It was so great to get together.

"Original"... "Touching"... "Well-staged".

These words best describe In All Circumstances and Feast of the Tabernacles, two very different presentations which successfully combine faith and theatre -- a rare feat!

from the air

Growing up I wanted to be a pilot. As I've performed my plays around the world I've been able to do enough flying to fulfill that desire. For more shots from the air, visit RichDrama.com/Air.

The Young Eric Liddell

Jesse, who attends our church, Westchester Chapel, asked for some input on a paper and presentation he did for his whole school on Eric Liddell. He was in a wax museum lineup along with FDR and the like. It sounds like he held his own.
